"I read the email you received from the anonymous
mechanic and felt compelled to respond to it. I, too, work for
an airline, though I work in upper management levels. I will not
say which airline, what city I am located, nor what office I work
for, for obvious reasons. I wish I could document everything I
am about to relate to you, but to do so is next to impossible and
would result in possible physical harm to me.

Airline companies in America have been participating in something
called Project Cloverleaf for a few years now. The earliest date
anyone remembers being briefed on it is 1998. I was briefed on
it in 1999. The few airline employees who were briefed on Project
Cloverleaf were all made to undergo background checks, and before
we were briefed on it we were made to sign non-disclosure agreements,
which basically state that if we tell anyone what we know we could
be imprisoned.

About twenty employees in our office were briefed along with me
by two officials from some government agency. They didn't tell
us which one. They told us that the government was going to pay
our airline, along with others, to release special chemicals from
commercial aircraft. When asked what the chemicals were and why
we were going to spray them, they told us that information was
given on a need-to-know basis and we weren't cleared for it. They
then went on to state that the chemicals were harmless, but the
program was of such importance that it needed to be done at all
costs. When we asked them why didn't they just rig military aircraft
to spray these chemicals, they stated that there weren't enough
military aircraft available to release chemicals on such a large
basis as needs to be done. That's why Project Cloverleaf was initiated,
to allow commercial airlines to assist in releasing these chemicals
into the atmosphere. Then someone asked why all the secrecy was
needed. The government reps then stated that if the general public
knew that the aircraft they were flying on were releasing chemicals
into the air, environmentalist groups would raise hell and demand
the spraying stop. Someone asked one of the G-men then if the chemicals
are harmless, why not tell the public what the chemicals are and
why we are spraying them? He seemed perturbed at this question
and told us in a tone of authority that the public doesn't need
to know what's going on, but that this program is in their best
interests. He also stated that we should not tell anyone, nor ask
any more questions about it. With that, the briefing was over.

All documents in our office pertaining to Project Cloverleaf are
kept in locked safes. Nobody is allowed to take these documents
out of the office. Very few employees are allowed access to these
documents, and they remain tight-lipped about what the documents
say.

I am no fool. I know there's something going on. And frankly, I
am scared. I feel a high level of guilt that I have been aware
of this kind of operation but unable to tell anyone. It's been
eating away at me, knowing that the company I work for may be poisoning
the American people. I hope this letter will open some eyes to
what's happening.

Again, I wish I could give you documented information, but you
have to understand why I must remain totally anonymous.
